Modal Driven App PowerFX Command Button Get User Name or Email

Posted on by 2

Using the new Modal Driven app Command Button and PowerFX, I can't seem to be able to retrieve the current logged in users name or email.

 

I tried User().email but it returns a blank value.

    Hi @JonnyBoy73 ,

    You could find that the User() function is not supported with commanding in model-driven app.

    You could consider embeding a canvas app within and use the User() fucntion instead.

    Or you could write a script as below to to get the loggin user

    var UserName = Xrm.Page.context.getUserName();
